      I'd be shocked if any of them building had an alarm. No ones gunna pay for one on an old as building. Just extremely unlikely.. Unless it's a newer type storage building maybe, which none of these are.
      Thos are simply carbon monoxide monitors and shit like that. Nothing police related

    **SHIEY.....I HOPE YOU READ THIS, IT WILL ANSWER SOME OF UR QUESTIONS** 4:45 Those wooden boxes held all the letters in the alphabet(upper/lower letters, different size upper/lower letters, specialty stamps, etc), you put all the letters together to spell words. They were used to print newspapers, books & so on. When you first entered the building, you said there was a hydraulic press, then said it not hydro b/c the gears spin....that was a screw press. JUST 1 LAST TIP, YOU SAID YOU WANTED TO TURN ON ALL THE MACHINES, BUT DIDN'T WANT TO GET CAUGHT.....next time explore the whole place first, then just before leaving, play with the machines. Hopefully, you could let know u read this info....stay safe bro & awesome vid!!!!!

    • @Crosshill
      @Crosshill 4 года назад +44

      the machine at 4:20 has to be a sort of linotype. you type on the keyboard and the corresponding letters trickle down and makes a stencil of sort, which is then cast in lead. its the quicker, more noisy alternative to manually putting the sentences together for print. after use, the lead stencils can be thrown right back into the hot lead pot, and the letters get sorted back into the cases. i think they're pretty rare, very intricate machines

No broken windows or doors, he’ll enter via something that already looks accessible. In one video I saw a companion remove the panel from a door to get outside but they placed it back on as soon as they got back in. This is how exploring should always be done.

    I'm pretty sure that first building is a metal workshop used to make letter blocks for printing presses, which are located in the second building.
    That would explain the separation of buildings, and why they needed lathes, drill presses, mixers, etc. in a building for printing books: They made their fonts instead of buying them from other companies.
    Still not sure about that pizza cutter though.

Almost every machine was sold to other countries like india and china. They probably still making boots on these old machines.

    @hasenpfeffer5092 3 года назад +1

    The difference between the age of the equipment and how long they looked abandoned probably had to do with a shift in the printing methods they used. Most print shops now use LED UV, digital for ink jet, and Xerox for printing. Back in the day they'd use presses and rollers that would put ink onto a 3D surface like those wood and metal letter press blocks. It's a lot less common now so they probably just left those rooms to collect dust, and consolidated their operations to part of the building. If they had any digital or Xerox equipment, they might have been able to sell it off or move it to a smaller operation. I'm not sure how it works, but that caterpillar looking conveyor belt is used in newspaper printing.
